[ubuntu] Backup Failed with LaCie hard drive topic






Thanks in advance for your help.

I run Ubuntu 14.10 on an Asus Zenbook, and I use the Ubuntu default backup program to back my computer up on a 1TB LaCie Rugged external hard drive, via USB. I do backups once a month, and usually this works mostly fine; sometimes there are some errors but if I run it a few times it inevitably works. Not so now. When Backup starts, it says "Preparing..." for a few seconds and then the same error comes up over and over:

Backup Failed
g-io-error-quark: Error splicing file: Input/output error (0)

I haven't been able to find any other cases of people experiencing this problem under similar circumstances. Is there something wrong with my drive? Or with the computer? What can be done?
